Shadow Program

About the Program

The College of Business offers you the opportunity to experience a day in the life of an Illinois Business student by participating in the Student Ambassador Program. This program allows you to attend class with one of our student ambassadors as well as a one-on-one meal.

The Student arrives on campus and meets with a College of Business Student Ambassador. The ambassador takes the student to one of their classes followed by lunch. The entire shadow experience takes approximately three hours.

Typical Itinerary

9:45 Arrive at the College of Business and meet with the Student Ambassador
10:00-11:20 Attend class with your Student Ambassador
11:30-12:30 Enjoy a one-on-one lunch with the opportunity to ask questions in a more relaxed setting

Shadows are scheduled in three-hour increments. Please arrive ten to fifteen minutes before your scheduled shadow time. Please keep in mind that the actual duration of the shadow may differ from the itinerary dependent upon the Ambassador's class schedule for that day.
